Unfortunately, parents often perceive caries of milk teeth and its treatment superficially. There is a widespread myth that baby teeth do not need special care, since the baby has to change these teeth anyway.
In fact, taking care of baby teeth is very important. They help shape the mouth for the permanent teeth and also help position them.
In children’s age, the carious process progresses very quickly, and if the reaction is not done in time, neighboring teeth or the entire dental arch may be involved in this process.
Both permanent and baby teeth can be damaged by caries. There are many reasons:
– Improper oral hygiene
– Influence of consumed carbohydrates
– Infection with cariogenic microbes
– Prolonged use of cheats
All causes lead to enamel demineralization and tooth decay. Only a dentist can diagnose the changes in the teeth. The treatment plan depends on how damaged the tooth is.
Neglect of treatment leads to premature extraction of milk teeth, which may lead to various types of delays in the development of the jaws.
Complications of dental caries may cause:
– Infection of soft and cool tissues
– Tooth nerve damage
– Damage to permanent teeth germs or developmental anomalies.
Why is timely consultation with the dentist important?
The dentist will definitely detect the carious damage and treat it before the caries damages the tissues of the tooth, which causes toothache. What we often think of as a small dark spot on a tooth turns out to be a rather serious carious lesion during a visit to the dentist.
